State Bound Area Football Teams
The Underwood Rockets once again have advanced to the Class 9-Man State Football Tournament. Underwood defeated Verndale in the Section 4 Championship game at the Fargodome by a score of thirty to twelve. On offense, the Rockets were unstoppable. They had 417 yards of offense with 406 of them coming on the ground. Cole Kugler was the leading rusher for Underwood with 101 yards. Dylan Kalenze also had ninety-eight yards on twelve carries, and Justin Masloski also had sixty-one yards on twelve touches (Rockets Claim Section 4 9-Man Championship).
“We are going to state.” Going to the state football tournament is a dream for every high school football player that suits-up on Friday night. Getting to the state tournament takes a lot of work. It takes many hours on the practice field and in the weight room to have that dream season. Many area schools have advanced to the state tournament. Hopefully for them, the season will end with a state championship.
The Section 4 Class 9-Man Championship game was a rematch of an earlier game this season on September 5th. On that night, it was Verndale going home victorious by a score of fourteen to thirteen in overtime. Noah Thompson was the leading rusher for the Rockets, rushing twenty-two times for 131 yards. Dylan Kalenze also rushed the ball for 100 yards (Pirates Avenge Playoff Loss with Overtime Win in Underwood). It is amazing what the difference a few weeks makes in the difference in the outcome of the same matchup.
